Hi I haven't been officially diagnosed but have seen drs about this and am waiting to see a specialist but the drs in the hospital seem to think I have svt. Waiting also on a stress test but from my event monitor svt is the diagnosis so far. I can have a few a week or none but I seem to be having one on and off since yesterday. Ita hot inside kitchen where I work and I'm sure that doesn't help. But this morning and yesterday afternoon I have a tingly numb like feeling between my shoulders should o go to the emergency room or just wait it out. I'm so scared by this diagnosis I have 2 young children and really want to see them grow up. And have recently lost 3.5st to reduce my cholesterol

    Hi Thankyou for your message when you say going in and out of the svt do you have a normal heart rate in between if so your body seems to be stopping the svt on its own but also you go into another svt ... I'm on the other hand different when my svt begins I go on for hours and the adenosine drug does not work and every time I'm in hospital getting a shock ( cardioversion to set my heart rate back into rhythem .... Regarding your should tingling is this with the svt attack ?

      Yes rate dropping to high 70's but going back up to 150's can be high maybe 30/40mins then drops for about 60/90mins tingling comes and goes not always with svt. A few people are struggling in work today it's high 30's? with no fresh air getting in so it could be that sitting outside now and it's dropped to 72.

      Heat definitely makes my heart race. Even if I have the shower too hot. I experience all kinds of heart beats. This morning it was like morse code. I get tingling in my jaw during and after an SVT episode . Can't say on the shoulder blades I'm afraid . Best to mention it though ....

    Hi I've been off work since yesterday morning and my heart rate has been normal. Maybe I need to stop cheffing and get out of hot kitchens with heavy lifting.. I don't think my 37 year old body can take it any more. I feel like I'm falling apart. My Dr also thinks I may have fibromyalgia 😞
